    Pet-Friendly Things To Do In Syracuse

    Wednesday, May 11, 2022 2:00 PM by Bridget Rooney

    With Central New York warming up for spring and summer, everyone’s excited to get out and enjoy new adventures, seasonal meals, refreshing drinks, and delicious desserts. Syracuse is ready for you and your four-legged family member to take part in whatever activity you’re looking to do.

    Here are five fur family-friendly places to check out when planning your next paw-fect day out in Syracuse.

    Kick Start at Cracked Bean Roastery

    Located just outside of downtown Syracuse, the Cracked Bean Roastery is next to the famous Palace theater off of historic James Street. Here, you’ll enjoy the latte of the month, pastries from all over the county and of course treats for fido. During the warm weather months Cracked Bean has a wonderful patio with water bowls outside, constantly refreshed, but dogs are welcome inside as well. Cracked Bean is open seven days a week and the staff can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Enlist your pup in their leash gang today and head over for a handcrafted drink.

    Feel like a Local at Local 315 Brewing Company

    With ample space outside, you’re sure to have a few pup sightings at 315 Brewing Company in Camillus, NY. Open and welcoming dogs all year round, this brewery is a wonderful destination during the warm weather months for live music, food trucks, and farm animals which means the ideal place for the whole family.

    Jump in at Jamesville Beach and Park

    Let your pooch be the star of the show and spend your afternoon at Jamesville Beach and Park. While dogs are welcome everywhere, there’s an exclusive off leash park that your pup will be excited to sniff and explore green pastures, wooded trails, and open water access. After swimming in the reservoir, picnics by the playground, and taking trail expeditions, the whole family will go home exhausted. Jamesville Beach hosts an annual Balloon Festival every summer in Syracuse.

    Head On Over to Heid’s

    Start at Onondaga Parkway for a walk by the water and then head to Heid’s for a delicious hot dog with your dog. A staple of Liverpool, Heid’s has been open since 1886 serving fresh franks and snappys right off the grill. Additionally, their menu is full of awesome options like Philly cheese steaks, Italian sausage, and macaroni salad just to name a few. With a wonderful patio, you and your hungry hound can grab a picnic bench and enjoy your food in sun or shade.

    Dig in at Doug’s Fish Fry

    Serving fresh seafood all year round, Doug’s Fish Fry is a great place to grab lunch or dinner and head over to Skaneateles Lake with your canine companion. Be sure to check their website before visiting as some menu items are only available on certain days due to freshness! Beware, you might have to watch out for drool when fido sees or smells all the treats they have to offer.

    A Tail-Wagging Weekend

    You and your pup pal have dozens of overnight options when it comes to pet-friendly hotels in the Syracuse area. Pull out all the stops for your pooch with an overnight stay or an extended weekend in the city known for its open air, rolling hills, and thousands of acres of parks, pines and much more.
